Hey guys,
I was just sitting at my bed in hostel when I had this weird thought,'how often do we lie to ourselves?'. It's pretty often. Something bad's gonna happen and still we tell ourselves that everything will be all right, You had a break up recently and you tell yourself you are completely over him/her, and best lie among all is "I DON'T CARE".
Why do we do this ? Why do we have to lie to ourselves when we are well aware of the truth? Lies comfort us that is why we do it. I personally hate the phrase "I would have respected you if you told the truth at my face", you all know why ? because if the truth was so easy to hear why would i lie at the first place?. I personally would appreciate someone who lied to me during the tough times, because He/she considered not making matters worse for me with coming up with bad news and bad stuff. people are also called off spoken if they are too straight forward with the situation.
I'm sorry, I don't want to sound angry. The point is, lies make you happy and it is an essential part of life, think about it, without lies would any would have survived till this far? People knocking down each other would be a pretty common scene. Well, there is a bright side to it, we would then be highly pain bearing species.
So, why do we hate the lies? It is simply because we don't want to feel like fools not knowing what really is going on. I cannot come up with any other reason other than this. Can you? please let me know too.
I don't side with lies on everything, sometimes truth should be told. There are essential times when lie is undoubtedly superior to the truth but mostly the scale weighs other way round on lots of occasions. So, me siding with lies doesn't mean I don't wanna know the truth ever, but I wanna know the truth when times are better for me to listen and handle it.
